@gfwp: "Hallo mentors,
I've readed about it in the man pages, but I'would like to have a
confirmation about this fact:
setting "nostrip" in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS deactivate automatically
dh_strip
in the install mechanism?
I tried to run a dpkg-buildpackage with this variable set but in the
output of dpkg-buildpackage nothing changes...
Maybe the difference is only visible opening the program with the debugger??
Sorry for this stupid question, if it is!
thanks

Yes, the difference is only visible when looking at the resulting
binaries. The easiest way to differentiate is to build once with nostrip
and once without and compare the sized of the binaries within the
package. When they are massively larger, then nostrip has worked.
Usually nostrip needs no support in debian/rules because dh_strip
does the right thing. Only if the Makefiles you call do strip itself
or call install with the -s option, debian/rules has to look for nostrip
and disable that behaviour.
Hochachtungsvoll,
